Im getting a little tired of the comments about how the author is letting the art slip. I've been drawing for about 20 years and I cannot fathom the skill it takes to draw the same characters over and over, let alone portray a story in completly visual format. Working on a single image you're drawing for a long time will mess with your perception of it. I've had pieces I finished and looked at years later and suddenly saw something was off. Some of it is growth as an artist but even seasoned mangaka can struggle. An art style is not a finite thing, and always changes over time. I feel many of the readers are lacking understanding of the time, process, and talent this author poured into this story because of a couple of weird panels. Especially when many of these readers could not draw stick figures consistently. If you don't like the art....read something else! And thank you to the others for defending the author. It is very hard to create, but very easy to bestow criticism.
